Constraints, Indices, B-Trees Constraints, Indices, B-Trees 1 Maintaining Integrity of Data • You are creating a search engine for Rhodes' website, called Rhoogle. • You have an SQL query: – "SELECT * FROM pages WHERE name='" + VAR + "';" 3 Maintaining Integrity of Data • Data is dirty. • How does an application ensure that a database modification does not corrupt the tables? • Two approaches: – Application programs check that database modifications are consistent. – Use the features provided by SQL. 4 Integrity Checking in SQL • Data type constraints (including NOT NULL). • PRIMARY KEY and UNIQUE constraints. • FOREIGN KEY constraints. • Constraints on attributes and tuples. • Triggers (schema-level constraints). 5 Constraints and Queries • Often, constraints involve attributes we often perform searches (SQL SELECTs) on. • To speed up queries, DBs will often create indices automatically for you. 6 Indexes • Index = data structure used to speed access to tuples of a relation, given values of one or more attributes. 7 Declaring Indexes • No standard! • Typical syntax: CREATE INDEX MovieIdx ON Movie(MovieId); CREATE INDEX CastsIdx ON Casts(ActorId, MovieId); 8 Types of Indexes • Primary: index on a key – Used to enforce constraints • Secondary: index on non-key attribute 9 Using Indexes: Equality Searches • Given a value v, the index takes us to only those tuples that have v in the attribute(s) of the index. • What data structure would be useful here? 10 Using Indexes: Range Searches • "Find all students with GPA > 3.0" • What data structure(s) work here? 11 Range Searches • "Find all students with GPA > 3.0" • May be slow, even on sorted file • Solution: Create an index file. k1 k2 kN Index File Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page N Data File 12 13 B-trees • Extension of binary search trees to n-way search trees (where n > 2) • Balanced (like red-black trees) 14 Why B-Trees Are So Great for DB Indexes • DBs are usually on disk, not RAM – B-tree structure aligns with disk pages – Hierarchical structure minimizes number of disk reads. • Keeps info in sorted order for equality or range searches. • Balanced tree structure gives fast searches, insertions, deletions. 15 Definition • B-tree of order d is a (2d+1) tree: – Internal nodes have one more child (pointer) than data elements (keys). Leaf nodes have no children. – Root has between 1 and 2d data elements. – Non-root nodes have between d and 2d elements. – All leaves are at the same depth in the tree. – Has extended search property (binary search tree property extended to multiway tree) 16 Algorithms: Search • Extrapolated from binary tree search algorithm. 17 Algorithms: Insert • First, find leaf node where data would go. • Insert(data, node): – If data can fit in node, add it to the node. – If causes overflow: • split node at the median value. • Everything less than median becomes new leaf node. • Everything greater than median becomes new leaf node. • Promote median to parent node; call insert(median, parent) [may create new parent node if there is no parent] 18 Algorithms: Delete • Search for item to delete • If at leaf node, delete the item – Rebalance up from leaf if necessary • If at internal node, swap with largest child in left sub-tree (analogous to BST deletion swap) – Rebalance if necessary 19.

Basic problem: match a “pattern” (of length m) to “text” (of length n) • goal: decide if a given string (“pattern”) is a substring of the text • possibly created by concatenating short ones, eg newspaper • application in IR, also computational bio (DNA seqs) • if pattern avilable first, can build DFA, run in time linear in text • if text available first, can build suffix tree, run in time linear in pattern. • applications in computational bio. First idea: binary tree on strings. Inefficient because run over pattern many times. • fractional cascading? • realize only need one character at each node! Tries: • used to store dictionary of strings • trees with children indexed by “alphabet” • time to search equal length of query string • insertion ditto. • optimal, since even hashing requires this time to hash. • but better, because no “hash function” computed. • space an issue: – using array increases stroage cost by |Σ| – using binary tree on alphabet increases search time by log |Σ| 1 – ok for “const alphabet” – if really fussy, could use hash-table at each node. • size in worst case: sum of word lengths (so pretty much solves “dictionary” problem. But what about substrings? • Relevance to DNA searches • idea: trie of all n2 substrings • equivalent to trie of all n suffixes.

  • Heaps a Heap Is a Complete Binary Tree. a Max-Heap Is A
    Heaps Heaps 1 A heap is a complete binary tree. A max-heap is a complete binary tree in which the value in each internal node is greater than or equal to the values in the children of that node.

  • Assignment 3: Kdtree ______Due June 4, 11:59 PM
    CS106L Handout #04 Spring 2014 May 15, 2014 Assignment 3: KDTree _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Due June 4, 11:59 PM Over the past seven weeks, we've explored a wide array of STL container classes. You've seen the linear vector and deque, along with the associative map and set. One property common to all these containers is that they are exact. An element is either in a set or it isn't. A value either ap- pears at a particular position in a vector or it does not. For most applications, this is exactly what we want. However, in some cases we may be interested not in the question “is X in this container,” but rather “what value in the container is X most similar to?” Queries of this sort often arise in data mining, machine learning, and computational geometry. In this assignment, you will implement a special data structure called a kd-tree (short for “k-dimensional tree”) that efficiently supports this operation. At a high level, a kd-tree is a generalization of a binary search tree that stores points in k-dimen- sional space. That is, you could use a kd-tree to store a collection of points in the Cartesian plane, in three-dimensional space, etc. You could also use a kd-tree to store biometric data, for example, by representing the data as an ordered tuple, perhaps (height, weight, blood pressure, cholesterol). However, a kd-tree cannot be used to store collections of other data types, such as strings. Also note that while it's possible to build a kd-tree to hold data of any dimension, all of the data stored in a kd-tree must have the same dimension.

  • Splay Trees Last Changed: January 28, 2017
    15-451/651: Design & Analysis of Algorithms January 26, 2017 Lecture #4: Splay Trees last changed: January 28, 2017 In today's lecture, we will discuss: • binary search trees in general • definition of splay trees • analysis of splay trees The analysis of splay trees uses the potential function approach we discussed in the previous lecture. It seems to be required. 1 Binary Search Trees These lecture notes assume that you have seen binary search trees (BSTs) before. They do not contain much expository or backtround material on the basics of BSTs. Binary search trees is a class of data structures where: 1. Each node stores a piece of data 2. Each node has two pointers to two other binary search trees 3. The overall structure of the pointers is a tree (there's a root, it's acyclic, and every node is reachable from the root.) Binary search trees are a way to store and update a set of items, where there is an ordering on the items. I know this is rather vague. But there is not a precise way to define the gamut of applications of search trees. In general, there are two classes of applications. Those where each item has a key value from a totally ordered universe, and those where the tree is used as an efficient way to represent an ordered list of items. Some applications of binary search trees: • Storing a set of names, and being able to lookup based on a prefix of the name. (Used in internet routers.) • Storing a path in a graph, and being able to reverse any subsection of the path in O(log n) time.
